SPECIAL PRESENTATION: Teen Program 4. APPEAL: Planning &Development Committee Report re: Ridgeview Court Preliminary Plat INABILITY OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO TAKE TESTIMONY ON APPEALS DURING THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING State law requires that the City establish a process to handle appeals from application of environmental and developmental rules and regulations. The Renton City Council,feeling it was best for the elected representatives to handle the appeals rather than require citizens to go to court,has retained appellate jurisdiction to itself. The courts have held that the City Council,while sitting as an appellate body,is acting as a quasi-judicial body and must obey rules of procedure of a court more than that of a political body. By City Code,and by State law,the City Council may not consider new evidence in this appeal. The parties 411.0, to the appeal have had an opportunity to address their arguments to the Planning &Development Committee of the City Council at a meeting previously held. Because of the court requirements prohibiting the City Council from considering new evidence,and because all parties have had an opportunity to address their concerns to the Planning &Development Committee,the City Council may not consider oral or written testimony at the City Council meeting. The Council understands that this is frustrating to citizens and is outside the normal process of open discourse provided to citizenry during the audience comment portion of the City Council meeting. However,this burden of not allowing the Council to be addressed concerning pending appeals is outweighed by the quick,easy,inexpensive and local appeal process provided by the Renton City Council. 5.

SPECIAL PRESENTATION Tom Puthoff,Recreation Specialist II,reviewed the events and activities that Community Services: Teen comprise the Recreation Division's teen programs. He reported that the Renton Programs neighborhood centers offer drop-in activities for teens, attracting between 70 to 160 participants each day. Mr. Puthoff highlighted activities such as the Hip Hop Dance program, horseback riding, ski trips,rock climbing, overnight campouts, and the Great Escapes Teen Camp. Continuing,Mr. Puthoff explained that the Renton Youth Council program is comprised of approximately 100 members, and a large part of the program is volunteerism. The Renton Youth Council participates in community awareness projects, and organizes activities such as the flashlight egg hunt and citywide dances. Additionally, the Renton Youth Council is involved with the Renton Youth Enrichment and Support Fund project, which awards grants to local area youth groups, and with the Eastside Youth Hall of Fame, which is a joint project with various cities that recognizes outstanding teens. APPEAL Planning and Development Committee Chair Clawson presented a report Planning &Development regarding the appeal filed by Cliff Williams, Ridgeview Court,LLC, on the Committee Ridgeview Court Preliminary Plat(PP-04-131). The Committee heard this Appeal: Ridgeview Court appeal on 5/5/2005. After reviewing the record, the written appeal and hearing Preliminary Plat,Cliff oral argument, and having heard about the background of this project from staff Williams,PP-04-131 and receiving staffs recommendation, the Committee recommended that the Council find that the evidence submitted by the appellant justifies reversing the Hearing Examiner's recommendation concerning the plat, approving the plat, and approving the site plan. The Committee therefore recommended that the Council change the Hearing Examiner's recommendation,approve the preliminary plat, and approve the site plan with the following changes to the Hearing Examiner's report, recommendation and decision: 1. There should be added Finding 28 to read: "The Comprehensive Plan and zoning provided for a mixed-use area, which permitted residential development. Providing homeownership opportunities in all neighborhoods is a policy under the Comprehensive Plan. While it might be preferable to have a buffering use between the post office and the residential development, because of the separation from NE 4th St., there does not appear to be a viable current market for a buffering non-residential use. Since a residential use is permitted, and the plat has been designed to May 9,2005 Renton City Council Minutes Page 166 provide an elevation change between the post office and the residential properties, as well as additional setbacks, a fence and landscaping, the use is not only permitted,but is perhaps the only use that can currently be made of the property. Those persons that are sensitive to noise should be able to determine that the house they are considering buying backs up on a post office and that there will be some noise from the post office, and avoid making such a purchase." The Hearing Examiner's conclusions should be modified as follows: 1. Conclusion No. 1 is amended by striking the last two sentences. 2. Conclusion No. 2 is stricken in its entirety. 3. Conclusion No. 4 should be modified by striking the first three sentences thereof. 4. Conclusion No. 5 is modified by striking the last sentence thereof. 5. Conclusion No. 6 is modified by striking the last sentence thereof and substituting in its place "On balance, the public use and interest is served by this proposal." 6. Conclusion No. 7 is stricken in its entirety. 7. Conclusion No. 9, wherein the Hearing Examiner recommends that the Council deny the residential plat is reversed. 8. Conclusion No. 10 wherein the site plan is denied because of the denial of the plat is reversed and the Council instead accepts the Hearing Examiner's alternative decision on the site plan. 9. Conclusion No. 17 recommending denial of the proposed plat and site plan is reversed. 10. The Hearing Examiner's recommendation that the City Council should deny the proposed plat is reversed. 11. The Hearing Examiner's decision that the site plan is denied because of the recommended denial of the plat is reversed and the Hearing Examiner's alternative recommendation and decision is adopted. However, the Committee recommended that the masonry wall imposed as noise mitigation by the Hearing Examiner be eliminated and, in its place, there be installed a cedar fence, triple pane windows, and double insulation.

Fund? Renton Youth Enrichment&Support Fund is a youth-to-youth grant program of Renton Youth Council. The program will promote youth empowerment while providing resources to award grants to youth-initiated projects, in addition to providing volunteer project funding. Why Youth Grants? Both locally and nationally, studies have indicated that youth feel there are few opportunities for pro-social involvement in their community. Students surveyed did not feel the community values youth or sees them as a resource to fill useful roles in the community. This project's goals seeks to change that perspective by: • Increasing opportunities that provide youth with structured yet empowering environments to develop relationships with adults based on mutual respect and cooperation. Avenues for connections between youth and their peers,youth and adults, and youth and other community organizations will be available. Partnerships between youth and adults will be developed where the young people have significant decision-making roles. • Promoting activities that foster family, school and community connections. Opportunities will be increased for programs that address pro-social community experiences through volunteer service or out-of-school activities. Grants applications supporting programs that create bonds with schools or positive school interaction will be encouraged. An open house will be provided for families, schools and the community to come together and celebrate each project's success. • Enhancing the operations of community organizations and institutions in the community service groups, human services, education, and government sectors by engaging youth voices. Young people will be recognized as an asset through not only their volunteer services but also the grant dollars awarded through Y.E.S Fund to develop those services. They will become part of the problem solving connection between the youth community and adult community...with a mission of serving the youth. How will Y.E.S. work? The United Way Venture Funds, City of Renton facilities and staff, and Renton Youth Council fundraising activities will provide support for Y.E.S Funds grant projects. • A Renton Y.E.S. Fund review board will be developed and trained. Any member of RYC is eligible to apply for membership to the Renton Y.E.S. Fund Review Board. A mix of school, interests, age/grade, and gender will be sought. School principals will be invited to nominate board members. The final board will be between ten and twenty students, with staggered terms of nine, fifteen and eighteen months. The board members will develop grant criteria, and review and grant funds to youth-driven projects within the Renton community. Y.E.S. board members will be provided training in leadership, grant writing, communication, sponsorship and more. • Grant Outreach A flyer with grant information will be distributed to secondary teachers in the Renton School District, Renton community-based youth groups,youth service agencies, school clubs, and others as identified. Press releases will be sent to local papers, and announcements will be placed in appropriate City publications and City web pages. A pre- grant technical assistance workshop will be offered. • Grant Review and Selection The Renton Y.E.S. Fund Review Board will review each application using the criteria developed. Mini-grants in the amount of$250-$500 dollars will be awarded to projects that are initiated by Renton School District middle or high school students or community youth groups that engage youth as volunteers,provide positive after-school activities in Renton, address a need, or benefit the Renton community and its youth. Projects must have adult supervision, and meet financial and risk management requirements. • Recognition and celebration of each project will take place at an open house • Grant Evaluations Upon completion of each project, project members will submit an evaluation form. In addition, a narrative will be submitted, addressing how the project: 1)increased after-school and community connections, 2) enhanced the value of service to others through volunteer experience, and 3)increased project participants'self-confidence and feelings that they made a difference. Recipients of each grant will also be encouraged to provide a presentation on their experience. • Exit interviews for Y.E.S. Fund Review Board members Oral interviews will be conducted to determine new skills and assets gained through participation on the board. How will the project be sustained in the future? Renton Youth Council will develop a strategy for future funding. This strategy will include training on a how-to, who-to approach for sponsorships and donations. The success of this project will serve as a catalyst to develop ongoing opportunities for future Y.E.S. funding. Renton Youth Council Renton Youth Enrichment & Support Fund (Y.E.S Funds) April 25, 2005 Rick Stuburd, Principal Hazen High School 1101 Hoquiam Ave NE Renton, WA 98059 • Dear Principal Stuburd, The City of Renton Community Services Department, Recreation Division is pleased to announce the establishment of the Renton Youth Enrichment and Support (Y.E.S.) Fund. This granting project is part of the Renton Youth Council program, made possible through funding from the United Way Venture Funds. As you may already know, Renton Youth Council (RYC) is one aspect of the City's teen programming and is open to all youth in 6th through 12th grade who live in the Renton City limits or attend a school in the Renton School District. The Renton Youth Enrichment and Support Fund is a youth-to-youth granting program. Teens will take leadership roles and make a difference in their communities by supporting youth-initiated programs in addition to providing volunteer project funding. The youth participating on the Y.E.S. Board will benefit in many ways. They will receive training in leadership skills, grant writing, planning, communication, and evaluation skills. In addition, community leaders will serve as mentors throughout the project. RYC is now forming a Y.E.S. Funding Board. To establish the Y.E.S. Funding Board, youth members from each school in the Renton School District are being sought, and we invite you to nominate youth from your school to participate. Interviews with nominated students and contact with their parents will be conducted. Ten to twenty teens will be selected to serve. Board terms will be staggered, asking for a commitment of nine, fifteen or eighteen months. Enclosed is a fact sheet with more information about the program as well as several nomination forms. We are looking for young people who have an interest in community service and want to develop leadership skills. Diversity is important, and please note—we are not necessarily looking for that young person who is already the "perfect student and leader." Please nominate several teens and return the forms to me by June 3, 2005, either by mail or fax (425-430-6701).

After reviewing the record,the written appeal and hearing oral argument, and having heard about the background of this project from staff and receiving staff's recommendation,the Committee recommends that the Council find that the evidence submitted by the appellant justifies reversing the Hearing Examiner's recommendation concerning the plat, approving the plat and approving the site plan. The Committee therefore recommends that the Council change the Examiner's recommendation, approve the preliminary plat and approve the site plan with the following changes to the Hearing Examiner's report, recommendation and decision: 1. There should be added Finding 28 to read: "The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning provided for a mixed-use area, which permitted residential development. Providing homeownership opportunities in all neighborhoods is a policy under the Comprehensive Plan. While it might be preferable to have a buffering use between the post office and the residential development, because of the separation from NE 4th, there does not appear to be a viable current market for a buffering non-residential use. Since a residential use is permitted, and the plat has been designed to provide an elevation change between the post office and the residential properties, as well as additional setbacks, a fence and landscaping,the use is not only permitted, but is perhaps the only use that can currently be made of the property. Those persons that are sensitive to noise should be able to determine that the house they are considering buying backs up on a post office and that there will be some noise from the post office, and avoid making such a purchase." The Hearing Examiner's conclusions should be modified as follows: 1. Conclusion No. 1 is amended by striking the last two sentences. 2. Conclusion No. 2 is stricken in its entirety. 3. Conclusion No. 4 should be modified by striking the first three sentences thereof. 4. Conclusion No. 5 is modified by striking the last sentence thereof. 5. Conclusion No. 6 is modified by striking the last sentence thereof and substituting in its place "On balance, the public use and interest is served by this proposal." Planning and Development Committee Report Page 2 6. Conclusion No. 7 is stricken in its entirety: 7. Conclusion No. 9, wherein the Examiner recommends that the Council deny the residential plat is reversed. 8. Conclusion No. 10 wherein the site plan is denied because of the denial of the plat is reversed and the Council instead accepts the Examiner's alternative decision on the site plan. 9. Conclusion No. 17 recommending denial of the proposed plat and site plan is reversed. 10. The Examiner's recommendation that the City Council should deny the proposed plat is reversed. 11. The Examiner's decision that the site plan is denied because of the recommended denial of the plat is reversed and the Examiner's alternative recommendation and decision is adopted. However,the Committee recommends that the masonry wall imposed as noise mitigation by the Examiner be eliminated and, in its place, there be installed a cedar fence,triple pane windows, and double insulation Dan Clawson,Chair Denis Law,Vice Chair i�'I7�rc�Q ya.A440; Marcie Palmer,Member C: Neil Watts Jennifer Henning Nancy Weil CITY OF RENTON MEMORANDUM DATE: May 9, 2005 TO: Terri Briere, Council President Members of the Renton City Council FROM: Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Mayor Jay Covington, Chief Administrative Officer SUBJECT: Administrative Report In addition to our day-to-day activities, the following items are worthy of note for this week: ADMINISTRATIVE,JUDICIAL,AND LEGAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT • The State of the Community event is now airing on Cable Channel 21 and features presentations from the City of Renton, Renton School District, Valley Medical Center, and Renton Technical College.

APPLICABLE SECTIONS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: 1. Land Use Element—Residential Single Family 2. Housing Element G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: 1. Project Description/Background The applicants have proposed to subdivide a 0.28-acre parcel into two lots. The property is currently undeveloped. Both lots are intended for the eventual development of detached single-family homes. The lots are proposed at the following sizes: 6,151 square feet (Lot 1) and 6,150 square feet (Lot 2). The applicant is proposing to serve both lots from SW 4'h Place. Proposed Lot 2 would have direct street frontage onto SW 4'h Place while proposed Lot 1 would gain access to SW 4'h Place via an easement over Lot 2 (both lots are considered interior lots). The topography of the subject site slopes approximately 13% from the northwest corner of the property to southeast corner. The subject site is predominately vegetated with grass lawn and 15 coniferous and deciduous trees, of which 10 trees along the eastern property boundary would to be removed as part of this development. No critical areas were found at the subject site during the review of this application. 2. Environmental Review Except when located on lands covered by water or critical areas, short plats are exempt from SEPA Environmental Review pursuant to WAC 197-11-800(6)(a). 3. Compliance with ERC Conditions N/A 4. Staff Review Comments Representatives from various city departments have reviewed the application materials to identify and address issues raised by the proposed development. These comments are contained in the official file, and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate sections of this report and the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report. 5. Consistency Short Plat Criteria ' Approval of a plat is based upon several factors. The following short plat criteria have been established to assist decision-makers in the review of the plat: a) Compliance with the Comprehensive Plan Designation The site is designated Residential Single Family(RSF)on the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. The RSF designation is intended to promote and enhance single-family neighborhoods. The proposal is consistent with the RSF designation in that it would allow for the future construction of new single-family homes,thereby promoting goals of inf ill development. The proposal is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan Land Use and Housing Element policies: Policy LU-34. Net development densities should fall within a range of 5 to 8 dwelling units per acres in Residential Single Family Neighborhoods. The net density of the proposed subdivision, 7.14 dwelling units per acre, is within the density range prescribed. Policy LU-35. A minimum lot size of 4,500 square feet should be allowed in single-family residential neighborhoods except when flexible development standards are used for project review. The applicant has proposed two lots that range in size from 6,150 square feet to 6,151 square feet. Policy LU-36. Allowable developments at 9.7 dwelling units per acre on infill parcels of one acre or less as an incentive to encourage single family small lot development. The net density of the proposed subdivision,7.14 dwelling units per acre, is within the density range prescribed. shpltrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action REPORT AND DECISION DATED April 10,2003; PROJECT LUA-03-019,SHPL-A Page 4 Policy H-4. Encourage in fill development as a means to increase capacity. The proposal would create one additional residential lot, thereby increasing density within a currently developed residential area. b) Compliance with the Underlying Zoning Designation The subject site is designated Residential —8 Dwelling Units per Acre (R-8) on the City of Renton Zoning Map. The proposed development would allow for the future construction of two new single- family dwelling units. The allowed density range in the R-8 zone is a minimum of 5.0 to a maximum of 9.7 dwelling units per acre for lots one-half an acre or less in net size. Net density is calculated after the deduction of sensitive areas, areas intended for public right-of-way, and private easements serving 3 lots or more from the gross acreage of the site. The property does not contain any environmentally sensitive areas nor areas required for right-of-way dedication or private drives serving more than three units. Therefore, the net site area of the proposal is the same as the gross property area (12,303 square feet or 0.28 acres). This in turn, equates to a net density of 7.14 dwelling units per acre (2/0.28=7.14 du/ac), which is under the maximum (9.7) allowed within the R-8 zone. The allowed building lot coverage in the R-8 zone is 35 percent or 2,500 square feet whichever is greater for lots over 5,000 square feet in size and, lots 5,000 square feet or less are allowed to have up to 50% lot coverage. At the time of building permit submittal, staff will verify the lot coverage for both lots. Setbacks in the R-8 zone are as follows: front yard 20 feet, side yard 5 feet, side yard along a street 15 feet, and rear yard 20 feet. While no building construction is planned at this time, the lots appear to have adequate area to provide for new single-family residences while meeting the required setbacks and lot coverage. In addition, each lot appears to have adequate area to provide two off-street parking spaces as required by the parking regulations (this development standard would be reviewed with the building permit). c) Compliance with Subdivision Regulations Streets:No new public streets would be created as part of the proposed short plat. The Subdivision Regulations require the installation of full street improvements, including curb, gutter, 6-foot sidewalk, and half-street pavement along the site's subject streets (RMC section 4-6- 060), unless previously installed or waived or deferred through the City of Renton Board of Public Works. As there are no curb, gutter and sidewalk improvements fronting the site along SW 4th Place,the applicant requested a waiver or deferral from the City's Board of Pubic Works. The waiver and deferral were denied on April 9,2003. Therefore,the applicant would be required to construct the off-site improvements as a result of this proposal. The proposed subdivision is anticipated to generate additional traffic on the City's street system. In order to mitigate transportation impacts, staff recommends a condition of approval be placed on the project requiring a Transportation Mitigation Fee based on$75.00 per net new average daily trip attributed to the project. The additional lots are expected to generate approximately 9.57 new average weekday trips per single-family residence. The fee for the proposed short plat is estimated at$1,435.50($75.00 x 9.57 trips x 2=$1,435.50) and is payable prior to the recording of the short plat. Blocks:No new blocks will be created as part of the proposed short plat. Lots:The minimum lot size permitted in the R-8 zone is 4,500 square feet. The short plat would create two lots, which are proposed at 6,151 square feet (Lot 1) and 6,150 square feet (Lot 2) in size. The proposed lot sizes are compatible with other existing lots in this area under the same R- 8 zoning classification. The proposed lots also comply with the R-8 requirements for minimum lot width (60 feet for corner lots and 50 feet for interior lots) as well as minimum lot depth (65 feet). Specifically, each lot would '00100be 50 feet wide and approximately 123 feet deep. Both of the proposed lots (interior lots) appears to have adequate building area for the construction of a single-family residence when taking setbacks and lot coverage requirements into consideration. shpltrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action REPORT AND DECISION DATED April 10,2003;PROJECT LUA-03-019,SHPL-A Page 5 The size, shape, orientation, and arrangement of the proposed lots comply with the requirements of the Subdivision Regulations and the development standards of the R-8 zone. In addition, each '`b✓ lot would have access to a public street (SW 4'h Place). d) Reasonableness of Proposed Boundaries Access: Each lot would have access to a public right-of-way(SW 4th Place). Specifically, Lot 1 would access SW 4th Place via a 21-foot easement over proposed Lot 2. However, proposed Lot 2 has direct street access (frontage) onto SW 4th Place. As the subject site is only 50 feet in width, staff recommends a condition of short plat approval requiring both lots to utilize the 21-foot wide easement for vehicular access onto SW 4th Place. Staff also recommends that this condition be placed on the face of the final short plat prior to recording. Finally,as Lot 1 would be accessed from a private drive over Lot 2 and may not be visible from the street, staff recommends that the applicant be required to erect a street address sign that would be visible from SW 4'h Place. Topography:The topography of the site slopes to the northwest, at an average slope of approximately 13%. The property is vegetated with field grass and 15 coniferous and deciduous trees. In order to locate the access and utility easement and to create suitable building pads for the future single-family homes,the applicant has proposed to remove approximately 10 coniferous and deciduous trees. The trees to be removed are mostly located along the eastern property boundary of the subject site. The applicant submitted a preliminary Geotechnical Report prepared by Geotech Consultants, Inc. dated December 20,2002. The geotechnical describes the soil as loose to medium-dense fill and/or native silty sand overlying medium-dense native sand and silty sand that becomes more dense from eight to nine feet below existing grade. In conclusion, the report suggests that the use of conventional spread footings would be an acceptable footing design for single-family residential construction. As the subject site has a moderate slope (approximately 13%), potential erosion impacts may occur during project construction; therefore, staff recommends the following two erosion control measures as conditions of project approval: 1)The applicant shall install a construction fence and silt fence along the down slope perimeter of the site. The silt fence shall be in place before clearing and grading is initiated. 2)The applicant's contractor shall perform daily inspections of the erosion control system and provide any recommendations regarding modification or redesign to the inspector of record. These conditions would ensure that neighboring properties would be protected from any stormwater erosion impacts generated from the proposal. Relationship to Existing Uses:The properties surrounding the subject site are designated Residential—8 Dwelling Units Per Acre (R-8) on the City's zoning map. The proposal is similar to existing development patterns in the area and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code,which encourage residential infill development. Moreover, as redevelopment occurs in this area of the city, many of the nearby lots have been platted into smaller infill lots ranging from 4,500 square feet to 6,500 square feet in size. e) Availability and Impact on Public Services(Timeliness) Police and Fire: Police and Fire Prevention staff indicate that sufficient resources exist to furnish services to the proposed development, subject to the condition that the applicant provide Code required improvements, and mitigation fees. A Fire Mitigation Fee, based on $488.00 per new single-family lot, is recommended in order to mitigate the proposal's potential impacts to City emergency services. The fee is estimated at$976.00 ($488 x 2 = $976.00) and is payable prior to the recording of the short plat. Recreation: The proposal does not provide on-site recreation areas for future residents of the proposed short plat. Therefore, in order to offset the additional demand on existing park facilities generated from this development, a Park Mitigation Fee is recommended. This fee would go towards creating new trails and facilities that may be utilized by future residents. As such, staff recommends a condition of short plat approval requiring the applicant to pay a Parks Mitigation Fee of $530.76 per new single-family lot. The fee is estimated at $1,061.52 ($530.76 x 2 = $1,061.52) and is payable prior to the recording of the short plat. Schools: According to the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the City of Renton Land Use Element (January 16, 1992), the City of Renton has a student generation factor of 0.44 students shpltrpt.doc City of Renton P/B/PW Department Administrative Land Use Action REPORT AND DECISION DATED April 10,2003; PROJECT LUA-03-019,SHPL-A Page 6 per single-family residential dwelling. Therefore, it is anticipated that the proposed short plat would `fir result in 0.88 (0.44 X 2 = 0.88) new children to the local schools (Thompson Elementary School, Dimmitt Middle School, and Renton High School). The Renton School District has indicated they can accommodate the additional student generated by this proposal. Streets: The subject site is located adjacent to SW 4th Place. No additional streets are required as part of this proposal. Nevertheless, the applicant would be required to pay a Traffic Mitigation Fee in the amount of $75.00 per each new trip generated by the proposal prior to the recording of the short plat. Please see above discussion regarding"Streets." Storm Water. There are no storm water facilities adjacent to the subject site within SW 4th Place. Nevertheless,the applicant has proposed to tie into an existing catch basing, which is located west of the subject site. A drainage narrative was submitted with the application and has been reviewed by the City of Renton's Plan Review Section. A final drainage plan will be required prior to project construction. A Surface Water System Development Charge of $525.00 per new single-family lot would be collected as part of the construction permit or prior to the recording of the short plat. Water and Sanitary Sewer Utilities: There is an existing 4-inch water main and 8-inch sewer main located in SW 4th Street. The applicant would be required to make all necessary connections to serve the future development. A Water System Development Charge of $1,105 per new single- family lot, as well as a Sewer System Development Charge of $760.00 per new single-family lot, would be collected as part of the construction permit or prior to the recording of the short plat. H. Findings: Having reviewed the written record in the matter, the City now enters the following: 1. Request: The applicant has requested Administrative Short Plat Approval for the Kwan Short Plat, File No. LUA-03-019, SHPL-A. 2.

E-102 Kent, WA 98032 Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA 04-163, PP, ECF LOCATION: 909 Union Avenue NE SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Approval for a 10-lot subdivision of a 1.73-acre parcel. The site is intended for detached single-family homes. SUMMARY OF ACTION: Development Services Recommendation: Approve subject to conditions fir✓ DEVELOPMENT SERVICES REPORT: The Development Services Report was received by the Examiner on March 22, 2005. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining available information on file with the application, field checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: MINUTES The following minutes are a summary of the March 29, 2005 hearing. The legal record is recorded on CD. The hearing opened on Tuesday, March 29, 2005, at 9:01 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. The following exhibits were entered into the record: Exhibit No. l: Yellow file containing the original Exhibit No. 2: Neighborhood Detail Map application, proof of posting, proof of publication and other documentation pertinent to this request. rre Exhibit No. 3: Revised Preliminary Plat Plan Exhibit No. 4: Conceptual Landscape Plan Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA-04-163, PP, ECF April 7, 2005 Page 2 Exhibit No. 5: Zoning Map Exhibit No. 6: ERC Mitigation Measures The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Nancy Weil, Senior Planner, Development Services, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way,Renton, Washington 98055. The site is located to the west of Union Avenue and north of Kiwanis Park, with the remainder of the area surrounding the site being zoned R-8. Access to the site is proposed off of Union Avenue NE by a public street that will be extended 200 feet to a 55- foot radius cul-de-sac and off the bulb of the cul-de-sac will extend a 26-foot private access easement that will drop to a 20-foot access easement per code requirement for Lots 1-4. A single-family home does exist on the site but is to be removed. The site does not contain any critical areas. If a Geotech Report is required at the time of the building permit, it will be obtained. There is a slight slope of 5-6% and the site is partially wooded with the existing residential landscaping covering a portion of the site. Tract A, located at the south corner next to Union Avenue NE, will be the stormwater facility. The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance—Mitigated for the project, which included five mitigation measures. No appeals of the determination were filed. The project was found to be in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. A net density of the development would be 8.0 dwelling units per acre, which is within the allowed density range of the zone. Minimum lot size for the R-8 zoning density is 4,500 square feet, as proposed, all lots appear to meet the minimum lot dimensions. As far as setbacks are concerned, staff noted that because of the existing structure, it must be removed prior to the recording of the final plat. Staff would like to recommend that the portion that extends out from the cul-de- sac to the west, Lot 4 frontage would be taken from the east property line, but staff feels that in order to make it more consistent Lot 4 should be oriented as the adjoining lots to the west(Lots 1,2, and 3)therefore,the yard along the public street would be considered a side yard with a 15 foot setback. In addition, because Lots 1, 2, 3, and 4 have Kiwanis Park to the south and an existing residential area to the north which have their front yards facing NE 10`h Street and rear yards abutting the four lots in this subject site. The access road to these four lots will be coming off the cul-de-sac along the adjoining property line to the north, the orientation for these four lots to be rear yard towards the north property line and the front yards toward the south property line. Lots 5 and 6 are oriented in this fashion. Lot 4 should also take access from the easement road rather than the cul-de-sac. A conceptual landscape plan has been proposed with a mix of drought tolerant plants. There are approximately 58 existing trees of roughly 8 to 30-inch caliper on the site of which approximately 19 are shown to be reserved. As proposed, the corners at the dedicated right-of-way intersection of Union Avenue NE and NE 9th Place would have a minimum radius of 20 feet, meeting City Code requirements. The applicant will be required to install street improvements including curb, gutter, sidewalk and street lighting to Union Avenue NE as well as NE 9'h Place. Traffic, Park and Fire Mitigations fees were imposed by the Environmental Review Committee. A homeowner's association or maintenance agreement is suggested for the development, which would be *w.► responsible for any shared improvements and common areas. Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA-04-163, PP, ECF April 7, 2005 Page 3 lik""'' The subject site is located within the Renton School District boundaries and they have indicated that they can accommodate the new students. A Level 11 Flow Control plan for stormwater will be submitted as part of the construction plan review. The applicant would be required to construct an 8-inch diameter water line within the new road from the existing 12- inch water main in Union Avenue NE. They also will be required to construct an 8-inch sewer main and associated manhole to serve the proposed lots. Ted Dahm, 12708 l95`h Place SE, Issaquah, WA 98027 stated that he is the builder/developer of this plat. Regarding the orientation of Lots 1-4 requested that the front yards face towards the access so that the rear yards could be towards the park. It seems that it would be a better product with that orientation. All of their building prints have that orientation and so they would like to have that condition removed. Tom Tourna, Touma Engineers, 6632 S 191st Place, Ste. E-102, Kent, WA 98032 stated that his understanding is that the staff wanted to use the front 20-feet for the garage setback, however the concern is that the rear yard, which can go to 15 feet from the structure, if it is oriented to the south, would leave only five feet between the 10-foot existing buffer and where the house would be built. The Examiner stated that it was necessary to deal with the covenant, the property is not excluded, so it would be included in either a front or rear yard setback. Front yard setbacks are 15-feet in the R-8 zone,but the garage would make it 20-feet for front yard. Rear yard is 20-feet regardless. Ms. Weil stated that on the plan,the dashed line is where the building area would be. The darkened area is the buffer(10-feet). What she did was measure 15 feet in,which gives the additional five feet for the buildable "°err area. If the applicant wished to put the house at the 15-foot line,then that would limit any useable area to five feet, however, it does also give the 20-foot requirement for rear yard setback, as well as 20-feet provided for the easement. It maximizes the potential buildable area, leaving the applicant with the choice of the location of the house within that buildable area, although yards will be designated front and rear, it does not limit the applicant to design or orientation of the house. The only thing that would be restricted as proposed, the access easement would remain to the north of the lots, would be the garage entrance must come off of the easement and to the north side of the buildable area. The Examiner stated that the design of the house could be flexible, it could look anyway it wants. There really is no front and rear yard, the garage has to be to the north whether that is a front yard or rear yard. There has to be a 20-foot setback to the south, 10-feet of which would be the natural buffer and 10-feet would be the yard. As long as all the homes are oriented the same way and meet the setbacks, Lot 4 is the only one that is sort of different, it could front on the cul-de-sac so it matched Lot 10, or it could match the lots adjacent to it to the west. The question is, does it matter. Ms. Weil stated it really comes from looking at the overall neighborhood design, not just this development. Kayren Kittrick, Development Services Division, stated that everything was well covered within the design and plans and they have no concerns. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:45 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA-04-163, PP, ECF April 7, 2005 Page 4 FINDINGS: 1.

The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of single-family uses, but does not mandate such development without consideration of other policies of the Plan. *owe 8. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family - 8 dwelling units/acre). 9. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1609 enacted in April 1957. 10. The subject site is approximately 75,359 square feet or 1.73 acres in size. The subject site is an L- shaped parcel that narrows to the rear or west end of the site. The parcel is approximately 467 feet deep (east to west) by approximately 206 feet wide at its frontage along Union and 103 feet wide at its western property line. 11. The subject site has a gently rolling 5 to 6 percent slope downward to the east. 12. The subject site does not contain any sensitive areas according to staff. 13. The subject site contains lawn and a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees. A covenant on the property requires that a ten foot(10')natural landscaping buffer strip be maintained adjacent to Kiwanis Park. This area will be maintained and enhanced but the remaining vegetation will be removed to allow the development of the subject site. 14. The applicant proposes creating ten new lots along with one tract, Tract A, for stormwater detention. Near Union Avenue there will be two tiers of lots, one on each side of the new access roadway. Then a cul-de-sac will be developed with a tier of lots south of bulb and a separate tier of lots west of the bulb. Proposed Lots 1 to 3, west of the cul-de-sac, will gain access via an easement or private roadway across Proposed Lot 4. 'lore 15. Proposed Lot 6 and Tract A are corner "lots" in this case and must observe the larger side yard setback required along Union. Staff has recommended that Proposed Lot 4 along the cul-de-sac observe the Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA-04-163, PP, ECF April 7, 2005 Page 5 larger setback of a corner lot. Staff has recommended that Proposed Lots 1 to 4 have their front yards facing south so that they would align with the front yards of the easterly lots, Proposed Lots 5 and 6. The cul-de-sac lies between them. Since the access to these lots would be from the north the applicant wants the front yards facing north. 16. Access to the site will be via a deadend roadway ending in a cul-de-sac. The bulb will be askew to the north and as noted above, provide access via an easement to lots at the west, narrow, end of the site. 17. The density for the plat would be 7.97 dwelling units per acre after subtracting roadways. 18. The subject site is located within the Renton School District. The project is expected to generate approximately 4 school age children. These students would be spread across the grades and would be assigned on a space available basis. 19. The development will increase traffic approximately 10 trips per unit or approximately 100 trips. 20. Stormwater will be contained on Tract A. The tract is located at the southeast corner of the plat at the southwest corner of Union and the new cul-de-sac roadway. Staff has recommended that it be fenced and screened in this prominent location. The project will have to comply with the 1998 King County Manual and Level 11 flow control measures due to downstream flooding problems. The tract will also be bound by the covenants requiring a 10-foot setback from the park. 21. Sewer and domestic water will be provided by the City. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The proposed 10-lot plat appears to serve the public use and interest. It creates ten additional lots in an area where urban services are available. 2. The plat respects the adjacent Kiwanis Park by observing the 10-foot setback required by earlier covenants. This ten-foot setback will be part of the required rear yards but be limited to natural plantings. 3. While staff has recommended the orientation for Proposed Lots 1 to 4, it would appear that they are somewhat isolated, at least, I to 3 and their orientation could be flexible. At the same time, Proposed Lot 4 should address the cul-de-sac like its neighbors, Proposed Lots 9 and 10. In any event, all lots abutting the park will have to maintain the ten-foot landscape buffer adjacent to the park including Lot 10's western side yard setback. 4. The applicant will be offsetting its impacts by paying appropriate Fire, Parks and Traffic mitigation fees. 5. The development will increase population and clearly affect the character of the adjacent park. These types of impacts were probably considered when the zoning was adopted. 6. In conclusion, the proposed plat should be approved by the City Council. RECOMMENDATION: 44000. The City Council should approve the plat subject to the following conditions: Savannah at the Park Preliminary Plat File No.: LUA-04-163, PP, ECF April 7, 2005 Page 6 Nor 1.

The applicant shall have the private access easement posted with "No Parking" signage and have installed a "Private Street"sign with all street addresses visible from the public street. The satisfaction of these requirements shall be subject to the review and approval of the Development Services Division prior to the recording of the final plat. 6. In order to reduce the number of curb cuts for driveway access within the cul-de-sac, staff recommends the applicant be required to establish the access to Lot 4 from the private access easement. A note shall be placed on the face of the plat and the satisfaction of this requirement shall be required prior to the issuance of construction permits for the street improvements for 'Ite""' the plat. 7.

SUMMARY OF ACTION: On February 29, 2005 the City received the 60%Petition to Annex for the 10.11-acre Lindberg Annexation site east of 138th Avenue SE(Duvall Avenue NE) and north of SE 132nd Street(NE 2nd Street)in unincorporated King County. The King County Department of Assessments certified that the petition has signatures representing at least 60% of the area's assessed value. Under state law,the City is required to hold two public hearings before it can rezone this area. Whereas,zoning was discussed at the public meeting with the applicants on December 20, 2004, this was not a public hearing. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Council set May 23, 2005, to consider the 60%Petition to Annex for the Lindberg Annexation and hold the first of two required public hearings to consider future zoning of the non-street portions of the site. 410.01 Rentonnet/agnbill/ bh CITY OF RENTON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, NEIGHBORHOODS AND STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMORANDUM DATE: April 27, 2005 TO: Terri Briere, Council President City Councilmembers VIA: 'j Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Mayor FROM: Alex Pietsch, Administrator Economic Development, Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning Department STAFF CONTACT: Don Erickson (6581) SUBJECT: Proposed Lindberg Annexation - 60% Petition to Annex and future zoning ISSUE: • Whether the Council wishes to accept the 60%Direct Petition to Annex for the Lindberg Annexation, and if it does, • Whether the 10.11 acre annexation site should be zoned R-8, eight units per net acre, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designation? RECOMMENDATION: The Administration recommends that Council accept the 60%Petition to Annex and hold the first of two required public hearings on future zoning. If Council accepts the 60%Petition to annex, the Administration is likely to recommend that it: • Support future zoning consistent with the existing Comprehensive Plan land use designation; • Authorize the Administration to forward the Notice of Intent package for the annexation to the Boundary Review Board; and, • Authorize the Administration to begin preparing annexation and rezone ordinances for this annexation. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: Lindberg Annexation -60%Petition and zoning April 27, 2005 Page 2 ,,,. The irregularly shaped Lindberg Annexation site has not previously been considered for annexation to Renton. It is located north of the recently annexed Carlo Annexation site and is a peninsula surrounded by the City on three of its four sides. Three parcels to the east, another annexation, the Mosier II Annexation, is also under consideration. 1. Location: The proposed 10.11-acre irregular-shaped site is located between 138th Avenue SE (Duvall Avenue NE) on the west, SE 132nd Street on the south, the City boundary on the north, and a line approximately 200 feet east of the centerline of 140th Avenue SE, on the east. The easternmost parcel is immediately across the street from the Puget Colony Homes subdivision. 2. Assessed value: The assessed value at current development is $2,364,000. 3. Natural features: The site is relatively flat west of 140th Avenue SE with a high point of 124 feet and a low point of 119 feet on the easternmost parcel (Figure 4, Topography). The northern most parcel, east of 140th Avenue SE, contains a King County flood control pond and is traversed by a seasonal stream that flows south through Puget Colony Homes and eventually hooks up with Maplewood Creek. The City's Sensitive Areas Maps indicate wetlands on the northern two or three parcels of this annexation. 4. Existing land uses: Existing development includes nine single-family dwellings on nine of the eleven parcels in the proposed annexation. Two of the parcels remain vacant. (Figure 3, Existing Structures) 5. Existing zoning: King County zoning is R-4, which allows up to a base density of four units per gross acre and up to six units per gross acre with incentives and transfer of density credits. 6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject parcel Residential Single Family(RS). Potential zoning under the RS designation includes R- 8, eight units per net acre, and RMH,Residential Manufactured Homes. 7. Public services: All responding departments and divisions noted that the annexation represents a logical extension of their respective services and systems. Water Utility. The subject area is within both Renton's water service area and King County Water District#90. Sewers. The area is within Renton's wastewater service area but is not currently served by sewer. Sewers would most likely be extended by a developer extension. Surface Water. The Surface Water Utility reports that this annexation is located in the Maplewood Creek Sub-Basin of the Cedar River Basin. They note that there are existing drainage problems within this sub-basin consisting of flooding, erosion due . to increased stream flows, water quality, and degraded fish habitat. They are therefore suggesting that the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual, level '°o'' 2-flow control, and basic water quality standards, be applied to future development if annexation does occur. Lindberg Annexation-60%Petition and zoning April 27,2005 Page 3 ,,. Parks. The City currently lacks developed parks in this area. A one-time parks development fee for this project, above what the City receives for parks mitigation from new housing units, is estimated to be $35,383. Fire. The area is currently served by Fire District #25, which the City currently serves under contract. Upon annexation this service would transfer to the City. Public Works Maintenance. Maintenance staff noted that the only organized drainage within the proposed annexation is along 140th Avenue SE. The City would have to maintain this as well as the existing King County flood control pond. ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION: 1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The annexation policies generally support the proposed annexation. The subject site is within Renton's Potential Annexation Area and subject to development pressure. (Policies LU-37 and LU-38) The area is available for urbanization under the King County Comprehensive Plan, zoning and subdivision regulations. Renton is the logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area. Policy LU-37 states that, in general,the greater the contiguity with the city limits, the more favorable the annexation. The area proposed for annexation is adjacent to the city limits along approximately 80%of its perimeter. Proposed boundaries also are generally ^trr identifiable in the field. (Policy LU-43). 2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives: (from RCW 36.93.180) a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities; The proposed annexation would cause no disruption to the larger community. b. Use of physical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies of water, highways, and land contours; Boundaries generally follow existing City of Renton boundaries to the north,west, and south. Two of these boundaries are also existing streets. c. Creation and preservation of logical service areas; Not applicable. d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries; The boundaries are somewhat irregular but fill in an existing peninsula of unincorporated King County surrounded by the City on three sides. The annexation will create a more regular boundary for the City. New e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of incorporations of cities in excess of ten thousand population in heavily populated urban areas; Lindberg Annexation-60%Petition and zoning April 27,2005 Page 4 Nkrise Not applicable. f Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts; Not applicable. g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries; The annexation of this peninsula of unincorporated King County will result in a more practical, although interim, city boundary. h. Incorporation as cities or towns or annexation to cities or towns of unincorporated areas which are urban in character; and, King County has designated this area for urban development. i. Protection of agricultural and rural lands which are designated for long term productive agricultural and resource use by a comprehensive plan adopted by the county legislative authority. Not applicable. No portions of the proposed Annexation area are rural or designated for long-term productive agricultural use in the King County Comprehensive Plan. CONCLUSION: Nor The proposed Lindberg Annexation is generally consistent with City policies and Boundary Review Board objectives for annexation. No impediments to the provision of City services to the area have been identified. The fiscal analysis prepared by staff indicates a surplus of $8,139 at full development.

SUMMARY OF ACTION: The King County Executive's Office had invoked jurisdiction on the Merritt II annexation on August 27, 2004. The County requested expansion of the boundaries of this annexation to take in the whole area between Newcastle and Renton east of Coal Creek Parkway. After holding a public hearing on November 3, 2004, the Boundary Review Board notified the City on January 14, 2005 that it had approved expanding the boundaries of the annexation to 133 acres and that the appeal period for this action would close on February 14, 2005. No appeals were filed. Staff notes that the 133-acre expanded annexation area was pre-zoned R-1 and R-5 in 1997. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Council set May 16, 2005 for a public meeting to consider: 1. Accepting the expanded 133-acre annexation site, including the 20.59-acre Merritt II Annexation,north, west, and east of its original boundaries to encompass all of Renton's PAA east of Coal Creek Parkway and south of May Valley Road to the City's existing boundaries on the south, and, if Council concurs, 2. Implementing this annexation through two phases, implemented over a twelve month period and adopt the necessary rezone ordinances to make this area consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Rentonnet/agnbill/ bh CITY OF RENTON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT likare NEIGHBORHOODS, AND STRATEGIC PLANNING MEMORANDUM DATE: April 29, 2005 TO: Tern Briere, Council President Councilmembers VIA: Kathy Keolker-Wheeler, Mayor 1�' �,,^,� FROM: Alex Pietsch, Administrator fes" Economic Development,Neighborhoods and Strategic Planning Department STAFF CONTACT: Don Erickson(x-6581) SUBJECT: Proposed Expansion-Merritt II Annexation Area ISSUES: • Whether the City Council wishes to accept the expanded Merritt II Annexation (increased from 20.6 to 133.0 acres) and the three associated rezones that go with it? • Whether the City Council wishes to implement the annexation in two phases, with the first phase coming into the City immediately, and the second phase coming in a year later? BACKGROUND: The applicants originally proposed a much smaller annexation,now referred to as Merritt II, so as not to confuse it with the enlarged area proposal. The County has suggested expanding this annexation to encompass the whole portion of Renton's PAA surrounding it. This encompasses SE May Valley Road south to the current City boundary, west to Newcastle Road SE and SE 95th Way(and a 4.96-acre area west of SE 95th Way adjacent to the City boundary) and east to Lyons Avenue SE and the Stonegate Subdivision. More than 90% of the expanded annexation site was prezoned R-1, in 1996. A smaller five-acre existing subdivision at the south end of the area along SE 100th Place was prezoned R-5 in 1997. The R-5 zone was replaced in November 2004 with the City's new R-4 zone. Upon annexation, R-1 and R-4 zoning will be applied. Currently,King County allows clustering of new development in the R-1 Zone. Renton recently adopt similar provisions for its R-1. 1. Location: The proposed 133-acre irregularly shaped Merritt II Expanded Area is located northwest of the Stonegate Subdivision. It is bounded by Lyons Avenue NE on the east, approximately SE 101st Street, if extended, on the south, and the City of Renton boundary, SE 95th Way and Newcastle Road/136th Avenue SE, on �'`` the west. Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 2 04/29/05 2. Assessed Value: The assessed valuation with current development for this enlarged area is $14,860,621. moi 3. Natural Features: The site generally slopes from a high point near SE 100th Place of 127.87 meters to a low point of 93.78 meters near SE May Valley Road. A ridge runs diagonally through the middle of the site with plateaus in the southwest, north, and eastern portions. The area is considered to be within a high erosion hazard area. May Creek traverses the northern portion of the 120.45-acre site, flowing from east to west. 4. Existing Land Uses: Existing development includes approximately 65 single- family detached dwellings within the expanded annexation site. 5. Existing Zoning: As noted above, the proposed annexation was included in an earlier(1997)prezoning of this area to the R-1 zone (1 du/net acre) and R-5 zone(5 du/net acre),pursuant to RCW 35.A.14.330 and RCW 35.A.14.340. The R-5 zone was replaced with the City's new R-4 zone in 2004. This change affects only about 5-acres out of the+ 120-acres in the expanded annexation area. 6. Comprehensive Plan: Renton's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject annexation area Residential Low Density(formerly Residential Rural). This designation is consistent with the existing prezoning since it allows three zones: RC at 1-dull0 net acres; R-1 at 1 du/1 net acre; and R-4 at 4 du/1 net acre. It is also consistent with Land Use Policies LU-36 and LU-37 pertaining to encouraging annexations in areas where urban infrastructure and services are available for development at urban densities and in areas contiguous to City boundaries such as islands of unincorporated land where Renton is the logical service provider. Other ' relevant policies include CD-7, CD-8, LU-133, LU-134, LU-135 and Objective LU-EE. 7. Public Services: • Water Utility: Renton is the designated water service provider for the majority of the area. This includes the area west of SE 144th Avenue (Ilwaco Avenue NE) and south of SE 96th Street, if extended. The Coal Creek Water and Sewer District, if extended, serves the area north of SE 96th Street, and Water District No. 90, if extended, serves the area east of 144th Avenue SE. No additional staff is anticipated as a result of this annexation. • Surface Water: The proposed annexation is located in the Green Creek sub- basin of the May Creek Basin. The site drains to the May Valley portion of May Creek, where there is existing flooding,water quality and fish habitat problems. May Creek flows across the northern portion of the proposed enlarged annexation. Because the City adopted the May Creek Basin Action Plan which requires full mitigation for future increases in surface water runoff from new development draining into May Valley, future development will likely have to comply with the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual flow control standards. No additional staff is anticipated as a result of this enlarged annexation. • Wastewater: The City is the designated sewer service provider for that portion of the enlarged annexation area lying south of SE 96th Street, if extended. The H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doe\cor Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 3 04/29/05 Coal Creek Water and Sewer District, if extended, serves the area north of SE 96th Street. • Parks: Staff notes that there currently is a shortfall of parks, trails, and recreation facilities in the area. May Creek Park lies in the western portion of the enlarged annexation area near Coal Creek Parkway. Staff has calculated an estimated one-time cost of$79,828 as the fair share cost that could be attributed to this annexation, above and beyond revenues that might accrue to the City from parks mitigation fees for new development. • Fire: The City currently serves the western three-quarters of the annexation area under contract with Fire District No. 25. If the Renton City Council and the Boundary Review Board support this expanded annexation area, upon its annexation, the City will serve the whole area. • Police: The Police Department generally supports annexations such as this but notes that this, like all annexations, will likely increase the number of calls for service. The accumulative impact of these annexations could eventually require additional staff. • Public Works Maintenance: The division has not yet had a chance to estimate the annual cost of maintaining existing and new streets within the proposed enlarged annexation area. • Transportation: Because the costs of upgrading existing access streets serving new development within the proposed annexation would most likely be borne ".rr by those developing properties, there should be minimal cost to the City, at least initially. The only expenses the City would incur from a transportation standpoint would be those associated with new signage and pavement markings, street lighting, and maintenance costs. 8. Fiscal Analysis: Staff has conducted a fiscal analysis (see attached worksheet) for the proposed expanded annexation area. This analysis assumes that there are 31 developable parcels in the expanded annexation area representing approximately 52 acres, all of which are zoned R-1, one unit per net acre. Assuming net acreage at 80% of gross acreage, there would be approximately 42 net acres available for new development or 42 new dwellings. Staff assumes that these new homes would have an average assessed value of$500,000. Within the 133-acre expanded annexation site, there are an estimated 54 dwellings with an average assessed value of$176,800 that could remain. The total assessed value for the expanded annexation area is $14,860,621. With the inclusion of an estimated 42 new dwellings with an average assessed value of$500,000, the total assessed value for this expanded area would increase to approximately $35,860,621. The net fiscal impact of the expanded Merritt II Annexation area to the City of Renton, without new development, is an estimated cost of$1,095 per year. At full development, in an estimated ten years, the addition of 42 new homes in the H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doc\cor Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 3 04/29/05 Coal Creek Water and Sewer District, if extended, serves the area north of SE 96th Street. • Parks: Staff notes that there currently is a shortfall of parks, trails, and recreation facilities in the area.

The net fiscal impact of the expanded Merritt II Annexation area to the City of Renton, without new development, is an estimated cost of$1,095 per year. At full development, in an estimated ten years, the addition of 42 new homes in the H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doc\cor Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 4 04/29/05 $500,000 price range would convert this into a surplus of $2,250 per year to the No, City in 2004 dollars. This compares with an estimated surplus of$1,257 per year for the 20.6-acre Merritt II Annexation at current development and an estimated surplus of$2,038 per year at full development. If new homes are built with higher assessed values and existing homes are remodeled, these revenues could further increase. The costs of providing services to this enlarged annexation area would also presumably decline somewhat since service area boundaries would be less fragmented than if annexation occurred over a number of years. ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSED ANNEXATION: 1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The annexation policies generally support this proposed annexation. The subject properties are within Renton's Potential Annexation Area and are subject to development pressure (Policies LU-35 and LU-37.3). The area is available for urbanization under the King County Comprehensive Plan, zoning, and subdivision regulations. Renton is the logical provider of urban infrastructure and services to the area(Policy LU-40). Policy LU-43.1 states that, in general, the greater the contiguity with the city limits,the more favorable the annexation. The proposed area for annexation abuts the city boundary on about 60% of its perimeter. 2. Consistency with the Boundary Review Board Objectives: Noy a. Preservation of natural neighborhoods and communities; The proposed enlarged annexation does not split or change existing neighborhoods. The Stonegate neighborhood to the east will not be impacted by this annexation. Property within the proposed expanded annexation area is predominantly low-density rural zoning. The exception is a small area along SE 100th Place at the southern edge of the annexation area. At an existing density of only one unit per 2.86 acres, for much of the area, there is no established"neighborhood"per se. The exception is the denser Newcastle Terrace subdivision located at the southern end of the expanded annexation area, which has a density of approximately five units per gross acre. All of this existing subdivision would be included in the enlarged annexation area. b. Use of Physical boundaries, including but not limited to bodies of water, highways, and land contours; The proposed enlarged annexation area abuts the City of Renton along its eastern, southern, and western boundaries and the City of Newcastle along its northern boundary. If approved, the enlarged annexation area makes good use of existing physical boundaries using SE 95th Way/Newcastle Road and SE May Valley Road for much of its boundary. c. Creation and preservation of logical service areas; The proposed enlarged annexation area is split in terms of sewer service at the —Nirrov current time. As noted above, the area north of SE 96th Street, if extended, is served by the Coal Creek Water and Sewer District and the south of it is served H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doc\cor • Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 5 04/29/05 by the Renton Wastewater Utility. Similarly, the expanded area is split in terms of school service areas with the western 80% of it served by the Renton School District and the eastern 20% (east of 144th Avenue SE) served the Issaquah School District. In terms of fire service, the expanded annexation area is currently served by Fire District 25, which the City serves as the provider of services under a contract with the district. A similar situation occurs with water service with the area west of 144th Avenue SE and south of SE 96th Street, if extended, served by Renton and the area to the north served by the Coal Creek Water and Sewer District. Water District No. 90 serves the area south of SE 96th Street, if extended, and east of 144th Avenue SE. These boundaries have been approved by the various districts and adopted by King County. d. Prevention of abnormally irregular boundaries; The proposed boundaries of the expanded annexation area are not"abnormally" irregular. In fact, these boundaries are much more regular than those of the Merritt II annexation by itself and are consistent with Renton's PAA boundaries in this area. e. Discouragement of multiple incorporations of small cities and encouragement of incorporations of cities in excess of ten thousand population in heavily populated urban areas; Not applicable. f Dissolution of inactive special purpose districts; There are no known inactive special purpose districts in this area. g. Adjustment of impractical boundaries; The expanded annexation area does appear to create more logical boundaries than would typically occur with incremental annexations. h. Incorporation as cities or towns or annexation to cities or towns of unincorporated areas which are urban in character; and, King County has designated this area for urban development because of its location within the Urban Growth Area boundary. The county has also indicated that it wants to divest itself from providing urban services to these unincorporated urban areas. i. Protection of agricultural and rural lands which are designated for long term productive agricultural and resource use by a comprehensive plan adopted by the county legislative authority. Not applicable. No portions of the proposed annexation are designated for long term productive agricultural use in either the King County or Renton Comprehensive Plans. H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doc\cor Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 6 04/29/05 FINDINGS: The proposal is essentially consistent with City policies related to annexation as well as Boundary Review Board objectives and criteria for annexations. No impediments to the provision of City services to the area have been identified. The City already provides fire services to Fire District No. 25, under contract, for example, so there should be no change in service. Water service will continue to be provided by the City to the western portion of the expanded area south of SE 96th Street, if extended, and District No. 90 will provide service to the portion east of 144th Avenue SE, if extended. The Coal Creek Water and Sewer District with provide service north of SE 96th Street, if extended. School district boundaries will not change as a result of this proposed annexation. The initial fiscal analysis prepared by staff for this proposed expanded annexation(see attached worksheet) found that there would an initial cost to the City of$1,095 per year, excluding a onetime parks acquisition and development cost of$79,828. However, after build-out in an estimated ten years with the construction of 42 new homes with an average assessed valuation of$500,000 (2004 dollars), there would be an estimated surplus to the City of$2,250 per year. Because of the area's size, staff are recommending that this annexation be implemented in two phases. For example, the City will need to conduct detailed land use analyses to determine the extent of non-conforming uses in the area and whether such uses are legal or non-legal uses. Another reason for phasing this annexation is because of major transportation improvement projects proposed along Coal Creek Parkway whose funding ' could be in jeopardy if this portion of the annexation site is brought in before the project is completed. In order to implement this annexation, three different rezones are required. Each of these is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and existing prezoning. Phased implementation will allow time for the City to inventory uses in more detail and will be less disruptive to scheduled capital improvement projects proposed in the western portion of the annexation site. CONCLUSION: The proposed expansion of the Merritt II Annexation site to encompass the whole area of Renton's PAA east of Coal Creek Parkway SE and south of SE May Valley Road is consistent with relevant Countywide Planning Policies and, in particular, Policies CA-7, CA-10, LU-27, LU-31, LU-32 and Policy CC-6, as outlined above. The proposed expansion of the Merritt II Annexation site is also consistent with relevant City of Renton Comprehensive Plan Policies including LU-35, LU-36, LU-37, LU-42, and LU-43. The proposed expansion of the Merritt II Annexation site is consistent with relevant Boundary Review Board objectives in that it preserves existing neighborhoods such as Newcastle Terrace along SE 100th Place, creates reasonable boundaries using major roadways and city boundaries, results in more efficient service areas, and involves the annexation of unincorporated areas that are designated urban in character. And, the H:\EDNSP\PAA\Annexations\Merritt#2\Rev Expans Issue Paper.doc\cor • Requested Expansion of the Merritt II Annexation 7 04/29/05 proposed expansion of the Merritt II Annexation site, if phased in, would not appear to adversely impact City finances. RECOMMENDATION: Effectuate the expanded Merritt II Annexation by adopting an annexation ordinance that phases implementation over a twelve month period, and adopt necessary ordinances rezoning the enlarged area concurrently and consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan.

SR 169 is a major regional connector for SE King County,serves as a main street for Maple Valley and Black Diamond, and is a residential street in Enumclaw. Portions of SR 169 towards Renton carry 34,000 vehicles per day, and all along the corridor the traffic volumes are increasing resulting in a number of choke points and bottlenecks. There are three High Accident Corridor(HAC) segments on SR 169 and one High Accident Location (HAL). Increases in traffic volumes along with increased development with increased access to SR 169 are major contributors to accidents along this corridor. Pedestrian safety and improved transit service are also of concern. In 2004, the Washington State Legislature responded to community requests to identify necessary improvements. The legislature requested the STATE conduct a corridor study of SR 169 to provide a set of short term(6 year) and long term (20 year) congestion and safety improvements for the corridor. The study will be led by the STATE in partnership with the cities of Renton,Maple Valley, Black Diamond and Enumclaw. Purpose of Study Effort The purpose of the effort for the SR 169,Corridor Study is to address the four key elements: • Identify mobility and safety needs and solutions for the entire SR 169 corridor for the next 20 years; • Identify potential short-term solutions on the corridor; • Identify mobility and safety needs and solutions in the Renton,Black Diamond,Maple Valley, and Enumclaw urbanized areas; and • Complement local comprehensive plans and policies,including avoidance of adverse impacts such as induced unplanned development and growth and encroachment on special environmental and open space lands.

In this work element,potential alternatives and strategies shall be identified,formulated and evaluated for potential roadway and traffic control improvements to satisfy the future year traffic service flow, safety and access management needs on the SR 169 corridor as identified in Work Element 3.2. Potential improvement alternatives/options could include: low cost traffic operations /TSM operations, significant widening and/or intersection or passing lane improvements and other significant widening or improvement projects for long corridor segments consolidation of entrances/exits, or additional on/off ramps; addition of auxiliary lanes or collector-distributor streets between interchanges, pedestrian/bicycle crossings, or added or expanded park-and-ride lots and ramp metering. The analysis shall address improvement alternatives and strategies for non- motorized (bicycle and pedestrian)needs, transit and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) fir✓ modal needs, and school bus route safety needs. Initial screening of all potential improvements down to a "short-list" of alternatives shall be conducted in two steps: (1)A"Fatal Flaw" review with regard to engineering/physical feasibility, operational feasibility, environmental constraints, public acceptance or other perspectives; and (2)Packaging and Screening the remaining "long list" of highway, HOV,transit, and bicycle alternatives. Proposed roadway improvements to be considered in the initial screening include: widenings (minor/major),intersection signalizations and channelizations, appropriate access control features, alignment improvements,no more than four(4) Black Diamond by-pass options (as agreed to by partners),no more than four(4) Enumclaw truck bypass options connecting to SR 410,non-motorized (bicycle/ pedestrian)facilities and transit/HOV facilities. The long-list of options surviving the initial screening shall be packaged into no more than six(6) alternatives to reflect a range of investment in highway modes (high, medium,low), alternative modes-transit,HOV and bicycles (high,medium, low) and combination of highway and alternative mode investment. The screening of the long- list down to a short-list of alternatives shall be based on evaluation of no more than seven (7) key variables (e.g., capacity, cost, support,travel benefits, environmental impacts, safety)in accordance with the illustrative screening figure in Work Element 5.0. The main difference between the screening of the long-list of alternatives and the 4CR i4tt3 %me Exhibit A /A Agreement -8674 _ Scope of ork Task AB / endment 1 �'L. dop 5400 9 evaluation of the short-list under Work Element 5.0 shall be in the amount of detail and depth defined for the variables. For example,travel forecasts and level of service estimates for the long-list of alternatives shall be generated from travel model data using"sketch planning"or"quick response techniques". Traffic improvements shall be ranked by whether they (1) alleviate a known choke point, (2)increase intersection or roadway capacity, or(3)correct a safety deficiency. The results of a future travel demand model No-Build alternative will be provided by the STATE and used to identify where capacity issues are most critical to help in screening the alternatives. These techniques include linear extrapolation of current traffic growth in the corridor, manual assignment of traffic to key links, and spreadsheet analysis to link volume to capacity ratios to determine level of service and travel speeds. Alternative land use scenarios, such as build out of current zoning, land use changes that are not included in the regional travel model, or existing land use plans, shall not be considered at this stage in alternatives evaluation. The alternatives shall be defined in a manner consistent with the STATE's standard highway classification,including horizontal and vertical alignments,basic lane geometry,intersection and interchange layout, approximate right of way requirements, and major drainage features including detention/retention ponds. The STATE will provide the base mapping for the functional design of sufficient detail to develop the design and assess impacts. • Product/Deliverable(s): Niad A technical report that summarizes the results of this work element and functional design drawings for the long list of alternatives.

One draft review and a final report, fifteen copies of each. 3.6 Environmental Reconnaissance/ Constraints Analysis Review environmental resources and constraints in the vicinity of the initial alternatives to determine if there is any reason why an alternative could not be constructed or if an alternative can be identified that will cause less impact. The screening analysis shall consider potential impacts to wetlands and other waters of the U.S., floodplains, significant historical sites or public recreations areas or wildlife refuges,habitat for threatened or endangered species,rivers, streams, or wetlands; sensitive noise receptors; (potential for sound walls that could raise project costs); ethnic minority groups or persons living below the poverty line who are covered by Environmental Justice guidelines;local cultural or historic resources;or utilities such as electric transmission lines or large sewer or water pipelines. Although these flaws are seldom"fatal", environmental impacts can complicate or make it difficult to adopt an alternative if there is a non- or lower-impacting alternative available. The initial evaluation stage shall focus on impacts to jurisdictional wetlands/or other waters of the US (Section 404 Clean Water Act (b)(1) guidelines; impacts to floodplain; and impacts to properties protected by Section 4(f) of the DOT Act(parklands and historic properties). Lesser impacting alternative shall not be eliminated without good engineering or other reasons for doing so. The environmental constraints analysis shall be based upon readily available data from secondary sources such as National Wetlands Inventory maps,Federal Emergency Management Agency maps, State Parks maps, U.S.G.S. maps, available aerial photography, the National Register of Historic Places and archaeological records of the appropriate information center, and environmental documentation prepared for other projects in the corridor vicinity. A one-day windshield survey shall be performed to field verify the findings from secondary sources and identify any other critical areas along the corridor routes. Species-specific surveys or formal wetlands/waters delineation shall not be performed. Utilities shall be identified through consultation with the appropriate utility providers and as noted on the windshield survey. drc,A 4(3 Exhibit -1 /A Agreeme Y-8674 Scope o ork Task AB / mendment 1 6x144:floci• 8 • 4.0 REVIEW LONG-RANGE TRAVEL FORECAST MODEL ASSUMPTIONS AND RESULTS The purpose of this work element is to review the long-range model assumptions and coordinate with the STATE on obtaining and reviewing the travel forecasts. The STATE will use a long-range travel forecasting model to develop traffic forecast estimates for the identified short-list of improvement alternatives. One of several possible existing models will be selected by the STATE to generate study area traffic forecasts for a single year and four(4) scenarios,the No Build alternative and the three (3) short-listed build alternatives. The STATE will update and run the travel model,using the description of alternatives provided by the CONSULTANT.The STATE will provide all data from the model in a format suitable for the alternatives analysis. The CONSULTANT shall check the model outputs for reasonableness and consistency with agency transportation plans and known future development activity. The STATE will also provide a digital copy of the completed model for use by the CONSULTANT. It is anticipated that the STATE will use local agency and regional land use estimates and network assumptions in updating the selected travel forecast model. It is important that the future model is based on regional PSRC assumptions, but only if they incorporate existing land use plans from the partnering agencies. The model must be properly calibrated along the corridor and meet federal calibration guidelines for each classification of roadway. Known model limitations and deficiencies will be documented by the STATE. The STATE will have identified the future horizon year and the CONSULTANT shall have defined the short-list of alternatives to be modeled in order to move forward into work elements in this category. With support from the CONSULTANT the STATE will work closely with the project partners to come to agreement as to the alternatives to be modeled/ assessed. The STATE will coordinate with the CONSULTANT to ensure the model outputs are delivered according to the project schedule outlined in Work Element 1. 4.1 Specify Alternatives for Input and Format of Output to the Travel Forecast Model The purpose of this work element is to provide guidance to the STATE regarding alternatives to be tested and format of model output suitable for alternatives analysis. The CONSULTANT shall provide a list of no more than three (3)corridor network alternatives for input into the travel demand model. The STATE will provide all data from the model in a format that is easily transferable into the software used for the level of service analysis (e.g. Synchro or HCS). Traffic forecasts for existing and forecast years will be provided via hard copy model plots and soft copy data files. Data files will include link volumes and intersection turning &A42J Exhibit A l /A Agreeme Y-8674 , Scope o ork Task AB / Amendment 1 aft� 8 movements for both the AM and PM peak hours. Hard copy plots will include link volumes,volume-to-capacity ratios, and volume differences between alternatives. The CONSULTANT shall review alternatives analysis requirements and may further specify the content and format of the model output obtained from the STATE in order to better facilitate alternatives analysis. Product/Deliverable(s): Technical memorandum summarizing the alternatives to model as well as the content and format of model output. 4.2 Compare Existing and Future Land-Use and Transportation Improvement Plans with Assumptions in the Model. The purpose of this work element is to compare local land-use and transportation improvement project plans collected in Work Element 3.5 with assumptions in the regional travel model selected for the SR 169 Corridor Study. This work element shall review housing and employment estimates (base and forecast year). The CONSULTANT shall identify differences between local plan housing and employment data compared with the regional model. Differences between local agency land use estimates and the model land-use assumptions shall be identified and documented. Differences in land-use and roadway network assumptions between agencies will be reconciled by the STATE. Product/Deliverable(s): Technical memorandum documenting results of this work element for inclusion in final report. 4.3 Review SR 169 Traffic Forecasts for Alternatives The goal of this work element is to provide a "reasonableness" check of travel forecast model output provided by the STATE. The 20-year traffic forecasts generated by the STATE should demonstrate the relative performance (and merits) of the various improvement alternatives that have been identified as part of the SR 169 study effort. The forecasts shall include AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes for a No-Build and three (3) improvement alternative scenarios. Data from the model will be in a format described in the previous element. Any traffic forecasts thought to be incorrect or that do not seem reasonable shall be discussed with the STATE. The STATE is responsible for correcting or modifying the model if the forecast errors are substantial enough where model credibility is a factor. The results of this work element shall be documented in the draft and final study documents.

Page 1 of 2 Citizens'Alliance for a Responsible Evendell PROPOSED: A STRICTLY LIMITED SEWER CONCURRENCY CERTIFICATE MORATORIUM IN THE EAST RENTON PLATEAU PAA Context CARE has undertaken a major effort to formally present the question of annexation of the ERPPAA to the residents by election.We are committed to facilitating and promoting annexation of the greatest portion of the ERPPAA possible as soon as realistically feasible. The top two issues of debate to emerge in this effort are: > Preservation of the distinct character and quality of life of this community • Sewer extension policy The reputation of Renton as forward looking and responsive to the needs of the 7,500 local residents has been greatly improved by recent City actions, particularly with the Low Density Residential R-4 zoning and related building standards adopted with the 2004 Comprehensive Plan Update. The ban on multi-family development, plat and building design standards, wider streets and improved pedestrian/community access/safety provided for via the multiple site access requirements, as well as other components are enthusiastically supported by a wide range of voters. Challenge The R-4 net zoning is seen as a promise to protect our community and represents a distinct factor of differentiation between a future under King County and one as part of the larger Renton community. By tying issuance of sewer concurrency certificates to Renton's R-4 standard, a real commitment to this promise has been realized. Unfortunately, the associated design standards adopted along with the R-4 zoning have been inconsistently exempted from the sewer certificate approval test. If certificates are granted and subdivision development is subsequently vested under existing King County standards, the community will perceive a broken promise because the development will happen according to the lower county standards. Proposal Our request is not without precedent. The recently lifted moratorium on all out-of-city sewer service was quite similar. We also consider the recent Resolution No. 3750 (Highlands Development Moratorium)to be a model for the moratorium we are requesting.We propose strict limitations on this moratorium: > Only within the ERPPAA > Only for a limited time—we suggest six (6) months or until the annexation question is settled Justification We ask for this moratorium for these reasons: > To temporarily relieve development pressure that will result in development inconsistent with Renton's adopted Comprehensive Plan, and > To allow time for a focused study of our area and the appropriate regulations that must be in place should the results of the election fall in favor of annexation to Renton, and > To allow time for Renton's sewer concurrency certificate approval test to be updated remedy the current inherent inconsistency—R-4 net density is required, but the associated plat and building standards are excluded, and/or • To allow time for an Interlocal Aggreement between the City and the County to be adopted, through which development will occur in a manor consistent with Renton's adopted Comprehensive Plan Conclusion Development is coming.The members of CARE believe that it is possible and responsible to ensure that the development happens in a way that is consistent with the needs of both the residents and the local government holding long term responsibility to and for both the residents and the infrastructure of this community. The requested sewer concurrency certificate moratorium would provide a clear demonstration of good faith to the residents of our community as we consider our local governance options. Its impacts will be temporary, strictly limited, and well within established precedent. We have been assured that with the official submission of our 10% Petition to Annex— anticipated within two or three months-the Renton Sewer Department will automatically institute a policy very similar, so adoption of this requested moratorium will simply prevent development applications that might be tendered in the interim — minimizing instances of development inconsistent with Renton's policies and long range plans. Recommendation Adopt a resolution establishing a moratorium on issuance of sewer concurrency certificates within the East Renton Plateau Potential Annexation Area.

Wilson, Interim Finance &IS Administr to (� SUBJECT: Utility Tax Exemption, Council Referral#05008-C Council referral #05008-C was forwarded to my attention to examine whether or nor the City of Renton could provide discounts on City-imposed utility taxes for"seniors or disabled"citizens? Although the City of Renton cannot provide refunds or rebates on city-imposed utility taxes for all senior citizens, we can provide refunds to those seniors or disabled citizens who are qualified as "low-income". Under Art. VII, Sec. 7 of the Washington State Constitution, the City can provide rebates on utility taxes for the "poor and infirm" who meet certain qualifying standards. In consulting with Municipal Research and Service Center, there appear to only be three cities in the State of Washington that have exercised this utility tax rebate option. Those cities are Bellevue,Marysville and University Place. It should be noted that the City of Renton already has in place a "poor and infirm" discount program for our utility customers. To meet the qualification criteria, the citizen must either be a senior citizen (over 62 years of age) or disabled and also meet low-income standards (combined income less than $31,500) in order to receive either a 40 percent or 75 percent discount on their base utility bills. Only 1.15% of our current utility customer base(214 out of 18,631 customers)has taken advantage of this discount program. If we were to assume that this same group of citizens would qualify for a utility tax rate exemption program and the rebate was imposed only on public utility bills, it would result in a reduction to our utility tax collections by approximately $130 per month. If this utility tax exemption was also applied to private utilities (gas, electric, telephone and cable), the financial impact would likely be around $2,000 per month. The fiscal saving to the customer and financial impact to the City would be inconsequential, other than the City's cost to administer the program which would likely cost more than the savings derived by the qualifying customers. In conducting additional research, Finance staff found that King County (as provided by state law) also has "Senior/Disabled Property Tax" exemption and deferral programs. These programs are for those seniors or disabled citizens with income under $35,000 who would be eligible for the property tax exemption program and those with income under $40,000 for the tax deferral program. Furthermore, Puget Sound Energy has a number of bill payment assistance programs for"low-income" customers. 1 2005 Budget Amendment\Utilty tax memo dot deepfitteeS9oo0S CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON RESOLUTION NO.
